The Romantic Clouds...!!!

Sitting by the sea side on the rocks and looking at the sun laying off, leaving the sky with a refulgent smile, I was totally lost in the serenity of the evening. I always find it very divine and soothing mixed with the feeling that the glory of the sunset reaches my soul with serenity of the sea healing it more. My idle mind was totally engaged in the beautiful nature. While I was enjoying myself, two eyes were affixed on me. Sitting very next to me, Vipul finally broke his silence and asked me “What is it that captivates you more than me?” And while I could sense a bit of irritation in his tone, I couldn't stop laughing at his stupid statement. Somehow I controlled myself making sure not to add to his rage. He was looking at the other side, obviously being annoyed with me. I moved close to him near his ears and gusted air from my mouth at maximum possible speed, to make him look at me. It made his ear drums numb for a minute and he looked at me knitting his eyebrows furiously. I took his hand in my hand and for a minute stared him straight into his eyes. Before we both could understand anything, the clouds started roaring giving a clear indication, it was about to rain. Within a fraction of second, we felt the droplets of rain water all over us. Each drop of rain was representing the joy in my heart adding life to the surroundings and to my feelings.

The aroma of the surroundings seduced my heart, especially the quixotic breeze that carried the aroma of stone & water mixed together adding colour to my emotions. Besides all these things, it was Vipul’s eyes that were drawing me towards him & I was totally immersed in his eyes. Quickly he broke my concentration and again started complaining stating the obvious ‘Where are you lost again?’ Tightening the grip of my hands on his, all I said was “Nothing captivates me more than your eyes. Your existence adds colour to my emotions, beauty to my soul, meaning to my life and my heart beats only for you.” And while I still couldn't keep my gaze off him, his lips showed an upward curve expressing his pleasure, to put that shy smile on his face, the perfect smile. He embraced me and I found solace in his arms, as if my arms were longing to wrap themselves around him.

Everything around turned out to be beautiful and the sudden advent of clouds added vibrant colours to our feelings and emotions. Gusty winds down the sea side and the special aroma of the mud & rain water mixed together gave my heart a pleasure divine and Vipul’s presence only added meaning to it, completing the picture. The ambiance was mesmerizing.

After a while we decided to leave the place and started walking towards our destination. While walking back, I thanked the clouds and also kept wondering how they knew exactly, what I wanted at that moment. Nevertheless I came to the conclusion that the clouds too were in a romantic mood. They wanted me to express my affection towards my beloved, so they added to the romance by pouring their heart out in the form of rain, leaving us mesmerized.
